[hsflinux] With alsa-driver-linuxant, pulseaudio doesn't connect to sound card

[Linuxant Support (Jonathan)]

Hi,

a few users have reported a similar situation and it seems to be a 
problem in pulseuadio, see this bug report:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/394500

for more details. If this is not the source of the problem, you could 
send logs generated by pulseaudio along with the file generated by 'sudo 
hsfconfig --dumpdiag' to support at linuxant.com for further analysis.

Regards,
